My Red Mansion Career

Chapter 191 Who do you think you are?

Faced with Jia Zheng's inquiry, Jia She was too embarrassed to tell what happened just now, no matter how thick-skinned he was. He hesitated for a long time, but couldn't even say a word.

Jia Yu didn't bother to ask, but said directly: "Yuanyang, tell me, what did Uncle Pardon say to the old lady when she came over just now?"

"This..." Yuanyang glanced at the people around him, and finally stopped at Yingchun, hesitating for a moment.

"Speak quickly!" Jia Yu didn't have the patience to play riddles with her and instantly raised her voice.

In the past more than a year since time travel, he has gone through battles of all sizes. As his official position has become higher and higher, and the people he interacts with on weekdays are all the most senior nobles of the imperial court and important ministers in the court, Jia Yu has such a strong personality. This kind of calm, self-respecting and charming attitude has become stronger and stronger.

In these days, apart from the people closest to him, the servants of the Jia family feel the most obvious.

Now, as soon as he straightened his face, everyone in Rongqing Hall instantly felt an invisible pressure rushing towards them, especially Yuanyang, who felt it the most, as if a tiger was looking at her with wide eyes, scared. She quickly told what happened just now.

After listening to Yuanyang's narration, everyone present was dumbfounded.

No one thought that there could be such a cold-hearted person in the world, who would even sell his own daughter for money.

Daiyu, Baochai, Xiangyun and other women looked at Jia She with disbelief.

As the person involved, Yingchun had already burst into tears, covered her face with her hands and ran outside. Her maid Siqi quickly chased after her.

Jia Zheng was so angry that he was shaking all over. He pointed at Jia She and said tremblingly: "Brother, how could you do such a thing? Yingchun is your own daughter!"

Jia She probably also broke the jar.

He knocked Jia Zheng's hand off with a "pop" sound.

Then he sneered and said: "You still remember that I am your eldest brother? Do you talk to your elder brother like this?

Besides, didn’t you also promise Tanchun to Brother Yu? Are you allowed to do it but I can’t? "

"I……"

Jia Zheng was speechless for a moment. Girls in Rongqing Hall, look at me and I look at you.

There seems to be nothing wrong with what Jia She said. Jia Zheng betrothed both of his daughters to Jia Yu. Now it seems reasonable that Jia She wants to betroth his concubine to Jia Yu.

The entire Rongqing Hall fell into silence for a while, and the people who originally wanted to accuse Jia She also fell into silence for a while.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Jia She sneered: "Why... I have nothing to say.

My mother has loved you the most since you were a child, and has given you all the good things.

But what do I have?

After my father passed away, I was even driven to the east courtyard.

Now I just want to find a good family for Yingchun. Is this wrong? "

The more Jia She spoke, the more excited he became, and his originally sallow face became flushed.

"fart!"

An angry shout suddenly sounded, making Jia She, who was originally excited, tremble with fright. When he turned around, he saw that it was Jia's mother who was walking out of the bedroom accompanied by an old woman wearing an exquisite blue silk dress.

Seeing Jia Mu coming out, the two brothers ignored the argument and hurriedly greeted her.

After Jia She took two steps forward, he looked at Jia Mu's eyes and stopped in a sullen voice: "Mom...why are you out?"

Jia's mother, who had just woken up, was still a little pale and her body was trembling. She said angrily: "If I don't come out, are you going to embarrass all the ancestors of the Jia family?"

The grandma who was supporting her beside her quickly advised her in a low voice: "Miss... please don't get angry. The doctor also said that you need to rest."

In the huge Jia family, there was only one person who could openly address Jia Mu as Miss, and that was Grandma Lai, Jia Mu's dowry maid.

Upon seeing this, Yuanyang hurriedly went up to him and helped him sit on the chair with Grandma Lai on the left and right.

"Mom...listen to me."

Seeing Jia Mu's arrival, Jia She instantly became shorter. Jia Mu pointed at Jia She and cursed: "You still have the nerve to talk about your brother, how much expectations did your father place on you when he was here?

But as for you, you are not good at studying or practicing martial arts. If your father hadn't left a legacy before his death, I'm afraid you wouldn't even be able to inherit the title of first-class general.

I don’t expect you to do anything to honor your ancestors, but you can’t embarrass yourself so much that everyone in Kyoto knows it! "

Jia She was willing to give up: "Mother, since you and your second brother both said that your son is a bastard.

That son also wants to ask you... Tell your son, with Yingchun's current background, which family can you find that is better than Brother Yu?

If you could tell me, your son would send someone to your door immediately to propose marriage without saying a word! "

"you……"

Now it was Jia Yu's turn to be speechless. Although Jia She was a bastard in his behavior, he was really right in what he said.

When it comes to the most popular nobles in Shenjing nowadays, no one can compare to Jia Yu, who started from scratch and was knighted at the age of eighteen.

It's just that the theory is like this... but things can't be done that way.

Originally, if sisters Yuanchun and Tanchun were betrothed to Jia Yu at the same time, it could be said that Emperor E and her daughter-in-law were serving one husband together, but if Lian Yingchun was betrothed to Jia Yu, it would be unreasonable. People who didn't know thought that girls from the Jia family could not marry. Going out.

Seeing that Jia Mu was speechless, Aunt Lai quickly smoothed things over and said, "Miss... Although brother She is a little confused, he is doing it for the girl's good, so you don't have to blame him harshly.

As for getting married, don't worry, we can take our time to find someone.

The servant believes that Shenjing is the place where the dragon veins of Daxia converge, and there are many outstanding people. Is it possible that there is still no young hero who is worthy of the second girl? "

As expected of someone who has served Jia Mu for decades, Grandma Lai's words not only comforted Jia She, but also gave Jia Mu a step down, quickly calming down the originally tense atmosphere.

Under the comfort of Aunt Lai, Mother Jia's expression improved a lot. She sighed softly, patted Aunt Lai's hand and said, "It's hard for you. You have to come all the way from home at such an old age." Serve me, this old woman.”

At this time, Jia Mu's eldest maid, Hu Po, brought a bowl of soothing soup. Grandma Lai took it and began to feed Jia Mu skillfully.

Looking at Aunt Lai's skilled posture, Jia Yu frowned. Although this old woman was not described much in the Red Mansion, in Jia Yu's view, she could teach the two brothers Lai Da and Lai Sheng. And he has controlled the affairs of Ning Rong's second house for decades, which shows that he cannot be underestimated.

He looked at the watch on his wrist and said to Jia Mu: "Old lady... It's getting late now. You'd better take a rest. If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it tomorrow. Let everyone disperse now. You Do you like it?" After Jia Mu drank a few sips of the nourishing soup, she felt much better. After hearing the words, she nodded. She was about to agree, but unexpectedly, Aunt Lai beside her said: "Brother Yu...now Although the old lady was in better spirits, since she didn't say anything, she obviously had something to tell her.

As a junior, can't you spend more time with the old lady? "

"Um……"

Jia Yu turned her head and stared at Aunt Lai with hawk-like eyes, a solemn look on her face.

He said slowly: "If I guess correctly, you should be the old lady's dowry maid back then, and now Aunt Lai, right?

Who do you think you are, you are worthy of calling me Brother Yu! "

Since Jia Yu married Yuan Chun, he has maintained a certain degree of respect for the girls, elders and even people like Aunt Zhao in the Jia family. This also makes people gradually forget that this person who once caused trouble in the Jia family host.

Now Jia Yu suddenly started to put on airs, and everyone suddenly remembered that this was not the boss in Jia's family who only knew how to drink and play with his wife. All the official positions he held were obtained with one knife and one shot.

The reason why Aunt Lai dared to call him Brother Yu was actually out of habit.

I think back then, she married Jia Mu into the Jia family as a dowry maid. Although Jia Daishan did not accept her in the end, but betrothed her to the steward of the Jia family, as Jia Mu's bodyguard, she has not been married since Jia Daishan's death. Afterwards, who in the huge Jia family would not give her some respect?

Even her two sons, Lai Da and Lai Sheng, were called Grandpa Lai by the people of the same generation in the Jia family, let alone her, who had a higher seniority.

In her opinion, she could even call the two brothers Jia She and Jia Zheng Brother She and Brother Zheng. There was absolutely nothing wrong with calling Jia Yu Brother Yu. She had never dreamed that Jia Yu He actually fell out with her because of such a title.

Aunt Lai was stunned for a moment, looked at Jia Yu, then at Jia Mu, and suddenly knelt down towards Jia Mu, and then Tao Tao burst into tears.

I saw her crying and saying: "Miss... this slave is urinating to serve you. Back then, I was ordered by the old lady and the master to accompany you to the Rongguo Mansion. It has been sixty years now. I have also watched Brother She and the government with my own eyes." Brother grew up.

This is what I have called the two young masters since I was a child. You have never said anything wrong with me. You never thought that today I would be reprimanded by Brother Zheng's son-in-law Chenglong Kuai. You are really unjust. "

Looking at Aunt Lai who was crying and complaining, Mother Jia looked at Jia Yu with a hint of displeasure.

You know, when she was a young lady in the Shi family, Aunt Lai was her personal maid, and after she married into the Jia family, Aunt Lai was still her dowry maid.

Everyone has feelings. Even a stone that has been with you for sixty years will still have feelings, let alone a human being.

Seeing that the maid who had been with him for a long time was scolded by Jia Yu, this was tantamount to a serious provocation for Jia's mother who always paid attention to respecting the elderly.

Mother Jia immediately turned down her face and said, "Brother Yu, Aunt Lai is a personal maid who grew up with the old lady. Calling you Brother Yu is not an insult to you. Why do you reprimand her like this?"

Why don't you apologize to Grandma Lai quickly? "

From Jia's mother's point of view, this was just a trivial matter. After Yuanchun married Jia Yu, Jia Yu should also call herself grandma, and there would be no problem if she taught him a lesson.

Jia Mu's thoughts were also the thoughts of most people present.

But Jia Yu's reaction was beyond everyone's expectations. He smiled brightly and said, "Is she worthy of apologizing to her?"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.

Before Mother Jia had time to speak, she saw Jia Yu walking up to Aunt Lai, pointing at her and shouting: "As the saying goes, a state-owned country and a legal family have family rules. If the country is like this, how can the family be an exception?

Although Aunt Lai is the maid who grew up with you, she is just a maid.

She can call the eldest master and her father-in-law "brother" because she grew up watching these two masters. If you don't mind, she can naturally call the eldest master and her father-in-law "brother."

But how is she related to me, Jia Yu? But she wants to call me "Brother Yu" just because she is your maid, and she doesn't even urinate and take a picture of herself. Is she worthy? "

The last sentence was so powerful that it shook the hearts of the entire Rongqing Hall.

Baochai, Daiyu, Xiangyun and other girls looked at Jia Yu, who was pointing at Aunt Lai and scolding her, with strange looks in their eyes, and a look of intoxication flashed across Tanchun's face.

For a long time, in order to emphasize her control in the Jia Mansion, Jia Mu has been instilling in the people below the idea of ​​a good home and advocating treating the servants well, so that the large Jia Mansion is filled with a strange atmosphere.

It was precisely because of Jia's mother's connivance that the servants in Jia's mansion behaved wildly. Several stewards tried to get a lot of money out of their own pockets, but no one dared to do strange things.

Although Tanchun couldn't stand this kind of behavior, what could she, a concubine, do about such a phenomenon?

Now, seeing her future husband-in-law reprimanding Lai Da and Lai Sheng's mother mercilessly in front of Jia Mu, she felt a rush of heat in her body, and that figure became more majestic in her eyes. .

Looking at Jia's mother who was shaking with anger, Jia Yu didn't wait for her to speak, then continued: "Old lady, I'm afraid you don't know yet?

It is this maid who is most loyal to you in your heart. Over the years, she has been trying her best to make money for her own house through her two sons.

The two brothers also built two mansions in Xicheng, and their scale also imitated the style of Ningrong's second mansion.

It's just that the scale is a little smaller. There are all kinds of pavilions and pavilions inside, and the two people's families are probably richer than Ning Rong's second mansion.

Tell me, how can brothers Lai Da and Lai Sheng earn such a huge family fortune?

Is it just because their brothers have bigger faces? "

"What...is there still this matter?"

Everyone present was shocked when they heard that Laiji actually built a mansion in Shenjing with the same specifications and style as Ningrong's second mansion.

Jia Mu's eyes narrowed instantly. She was just greedy for pleasure, but she was not an old fool.

Aunt Lai, who was kneeling on the ground, knew it was bad news as soon as she heard it. She quickly hugged Jia Mu's thigh and cried, "Miss... Miss... listen to my slave, that's not true."

The slave's two children did buy real estate outside, but it was just used for living.

No matter how brave a servant is, he would not dare to build a mansion exactly like Ning Rong's Second Mansion at the risk of serious consequences. That would lead to beheading. "

"is it?"

Jia Yu sneered and said: "Facts speak louder than words. How well your mansion is built doesn't matter what you say, nor does it matter what I say.

Since you keep saying that there is no transcendence, let's go and have a look for ourselves. After all, seeing is believing.

However, I advise you not to quibble. Don’t forget, what does this officer do? "
